I just upgraded to firefox 4 and it won't play any videos on the internet. Is there a fix for this or how can I go back to the previous version.

my firefox 4 wont play any videos. adobe flash player says its not compatible with this arcitecture. Did anyone bother to test this before releasing it.

I appreciate you taking the time to respond, but I don't want to uninstall my persona. I want to uninstall FireFox 4. I love my persona.
It really bugs the crap out of me when FireFox sends these upgrades around and I click "yes" to install them then my entire desktop stops working.
Is it always necessary for their upgrades to render the add-ons that people develop useless?

  • Just upgraded to firefox 4 and it won't start but it says it's running.

    I just recently upgraded to firefox 4 and it won't work. I was enjoying the lastest update on firefox 3 and it was working fine, but when i upgraded to 4, the problems started. Every time i click on the icon, the mouse turns into the loading wheel for a few seconds and then goes back, but firefox doesn't load up. Nothing happens. I have tried restarting the computer, but that does nothing. I then tried uninstalling it, but it says firefox is still running so it can't uninstall. Even after restarting my computer, it still says it's running. I have tried everything, but it just won't start, and I can't do anything because it claims to still be running.

    I just had a similar problem and it reminded me of trying to install a logitech wireless mouse a while back. Nothing I could do to make it recognize the driver... until I ran across a website that told me that antivirus and firewalls might prevent it. So... AVG Free just updated itself earlier today... FF4 would only startup once after reboot, then start and show in task mgr but no window(s)... Uninstalled AVG new version. FF4 starts up every time. Reinstalled older version of AVG Free and now everything seems to be OK again. Hope this helps!

  • Three days ago I updated my iphone 4s to IOS 7. Many of my apps disappeared and many of them will not even open. Are there any fixes for this nightmare? Can you revert back to the previous IOS 6

    IOS 7 has been a nighmare. I have lost apps and the ones that are still there clearly will not open. Can you revert back to the previous version IOS 6.

    I would sync with the computer
    and make sure that settings->itunes & app stores-> appleId was set correctly
    no ios device ever supported downgrading ios version

  • How can I turn off tabbed browsing in Firefox 4.0 running in windows 7? I don't want tabs at all. If it can't be done, how can I go back to a previous version?

    I upgraded to 4.0 and now everything wants to open in a new tab. I don't want tabs at all. How do I turn them off? I have to use IE at work and have no problem turning off tabs there, but I haven't found the way to get rid of tabs in Firefox 4.0.

    That is not standard behavior. You may have installed an extension that causes it.
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • How can I go back to a previous version of firefox

    4.0 does not work with Norton. How can I uninstall 4.0 and go back to the latest previous 3 version

    Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
    I do not know about the time scale for updates for other Norton products. Pending the update by Symantec, if you want to use the Norton add-ons you will need to downgrade to Firefox 3.6.
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
    For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

  • Since upgrading to 8.0 I can no longer print from Mapquest Classic. I an from IE. How can I fix that? ALSO I don't like the new layout. How can I go back to my pervious version?

    Since upgrading to 8.0 I can no longer print from Mapquest Classic. It's not a Mapquest problem it's a Firefox problem as I am able to print using IE. I haven't encountered any other sites problems yet but I'm sure it's to come if I don't get this fixed. I need to be able to print. How can I fix this?
    I also do not like the new layout. How can I go back to my previous version?

    What precisely do you mean by deleting the podcast app from both the phone and Mac? I have deleted the podcast app from my phone but on my Mac in iTunes->iPhone->Apps it shows up albeit with a button labelled "Install". I've resynced 3 times and when I try to access my Podcast playlist in the Music app, I still get a message telling me that podcasts have moved to the Podcast app. I'm really sick of some of the changes Apple  has made to their software.

  • Just upgraded to firefox 4 and websites are now taking ages to load, there were no problems when I downloaded the upgrade. Is there a fault with the new version of firefox?

    Just upgraded to firefox 4 and websites are now taking ages to load, there were no problems when I downloaded the upgrade. Is there a fault with the new version of firefox?

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • I just upgraded to Firefox 4. Now my cursor doesn't "snap-to" the default position.

    I just upgraded to Firefox 4. Now my cursor doesn't "snap-to" the default button. I made sure it was newly recognized (by unchecking and rechecking) in
    Control Panel > Mouse > Pointer Options > Snap To: Automatically move pointer to a default button in a dialog box > Apply > OK
    But the Fox isn't cooperating. How do I get this working again?

    I'm afraid I don't understand how your reply relates to my problem. I'll type the words I don't understand in your answer:
    "default dialog button" (where do you find this?)
    "mouse middle-click button" (I have a wheel)
    "Global default" I don't know what that is, so, apparently, it doesn't apply to me.
    "IntelliMouse" I don't have this either, just an old, dumb "Dell mouse" ;-)
    "dialog box" is that what I'm hoping the cursor will be moved to? If so, how do I get it to move there on it's own? What's the purpose of "Snap to" if I have to move the cursor there myself?

  • Upgraded to Firefox 23 and now my yahoo bookmarks don't have the option to open all tabs in a folder. How can I do this.

    The option to open all tabs in a folder is not available any more on my yahoo toolbar. On this computer and my home computer which I just upgraded to firefox 23 and that option disappeared. I need to open all tabs in a folder at one.

    Hi ziccs, is the missing feature to open a group of bookmarks all at once in separate tabs?
    I haven't explored the Yahoo! toolbar in detail, but it was just updated recently. I noticed the description "new user interface" on the versions page. You also can use that page to re-install the earlier version and see whether the missing function returns.

    Thanks for replying, I'm a real techno-cretin.  What do you mean by not using the backup?  I'm busy trying to restore my new phone and it's doing a 6 hour download with updates.  Can I restore the data from my old phone backup onto the new iPhone 4S when the download is done?

  • Ever since the most recent firefox update, every time I try to download anything firefox stops responding and will not do anything until I restart it. Can I revert back to a previous version, or is there a fix for it?

    Every time I try to download anything firefox stops responding and will not do anything until I restart it. Can I revert back to a previous version, or is there a fix for it? When I restart firefox, then the download continues and all is well until I try to download something new (which I do quite often).

  • I have just updated to Lion and now my folders no longer show number of items on the bottom. Is there a fix for this?

    I have just updated to Lion and now my folders no longer show number of items on the bottom. Is there a fix for this? I allways found that handy. Now I have to click on an icon on the top, This is a backward step if that is now the only way to see the number of items. Am I missing something obvious?

    In the good old days of Snow Leopard, an open Finder folder had a border along the bottom of the window which could show the number of items in that window and the total available space on the hard disk or partition that folder resides on. That bottom border is gone in Lion and those two bits of information are gone with it. Is that what you're talking about? If so, I'd like to learn how to get it back too and "Show Item Info" is not the way.
